What Sets Humphrey & Thompson Apart in Criminal Defense
Both Mr. Humphrey and Mr. Thompson are certified by the State Bar of California as criminal law specialists. That designation requires meeting rigorous standards that go beyond general bar admission. It’s one of the clearest signals you can have that the attorneys handling your case know this area of law at the level it demands.
Together, our criminal defense attorneys have handled more than 5,000 criminal cases over decades of practice. That volume builds a working familiarity with how prosecutors approach charges, how judges weigh arguments, and where the leverage points in a case actually lie. We’ve achieved favorable outcomes for clients in both state and federal criminal courts in Kern County, including cases that went all the way to jury trial.
We also keep our clients informed. Reach out at any time, and you can expect a reply often by the next business day or sooner, with clear updates as your case develops. When the stakes are this high, silence from your attorney isn’t acceptable.
Criminal Charges We Defend in Rosamond
Our criminal defense practice covers the full spectrum of charges, from misdemeanors and felonies to DUI, violent crimes, drug offenses, theft crimes, firearm charges, and federal crimes. Whatever the allegation, we handle every phase: analyzing the charges, investigating the evidence, negotiating with prosecutors, and representing clients at trial when that’s what it takes.
For Rosamond residents, criminal cases are typically heard through the Mojave district of the Kern County Superior Court. Knowing the venue matters. Local court familiarity shapes how we build strategy, negotiate, and argue on your behalf. When charges involve federal jurisdiction, our attorneys handle those matters in federal court as well.

Needed a lawyer for our juvenile son for a felony assault case. Public defender was not very helpful and told us that at best our son would be on a very intensive probation for years if not sentenced to a camp. Rob Singh took our case and basically got everything resolved outside of court with the prosecutor within 2 weeks. Alleviated a lot of stress and anxiety by getting our son on a very minimal probation for 6 months and then records completely sealed. Highly recommended and would definitely hire this firm again.- Erik S.

Due to the distance away from the Bakersfield area I was able to deal with the firm by phone and email. Phone service was very timely and they made me feel comfortable. If needed, I would use their services again and recommend this law office.

Kyle and his team are absolutely amazing! With my whole case they kept it completely stress free. Kyle will explain everything in a way you could actually understand. I highly recommend him. He's honest, fair and compassionate and fantastic to work with.

- Jenna B.
My husband hired Jared Thompson to defend him against bogus charges. Their price was affordable and well worth the work they put in. Even though the DA's office was not helpful and kept delaying the case over and over, Mr. Thompson and his team never gave up. It was finally dismissed and we couldn't be more happy with the outcome.

Jared and his staff, not exaggerating were on top of it all. If I called to talk to the girls in the front they handled everything right away, Jared reputation for being THE BEST matched him perfect. We had issues with the anger management classes and the staff really cared and helped us. Jared helped my son who was facing some serious charges but he genuinely cared about the whole truth and we got blessed tremendously! we are forever grateful and truly couldnt have imagined the outcome had we NOT hired him! Loved them thank you so much sincerely!

- Joe S.
His experience and knowing what to do helped and he has wisdom in sharing and saying the right thing to calm you in whatever you are going through. At times I was talked to as if I knew the law but when questioned what he was talking about he would take the time to explain. He is a very busy man so it seemed like he was hurried but would come back to explain. Happy with the outcome and glad that we were able to find a great attorney.
